Boss Joe Royle has admitted he made a loan enquiry regarding Manchester United striker Guiseppe Rossi. The Town manager is looking for a loan signing as cover while a number of his frontmen remain on the sidelines with injury.

Royle said: "We did ask about Rossi some while ago and it was a non-starter. It won't be him."

Town's search continues with Royle having two particular players in mind and Arsenal youngster Arturo Lupoli linked over the weekend.
